The Washington Reporter says that
the newspapers speak of the policy of
the administration in conjunction
with the present management of the

the Sparks management of the Gener-

it looks as if the policy of tho admin

The St. Paul Globe editorially T.,

The st. Paul Globe editorially re-
marks that "the benefits of the inter.
state commerce law are gradually un-
folding to public view. 1t has long
been Il fayorite theory with those who
have given the railroad problem most
thought and study that competition
was the one sovereign remedy for the
ills which the country suffered from
this source. This theory accorded 50
we'll with the governing principle of
all business life that no one seemed
disposed to dispute its correctness,
and even the railroad corporations
made use of it as an argument when
ever they wished to defeat legislation
that was designed to tlimit or restrict
their operations in any particular.
Just give lis full scope to compete
with each other they would say,
and lin that way we will keep rates
down. They were given all the
scope they asked for, and yetthe rates
were going up all the time. AT last
the people were Worn out with the en-
actions and eXtortions Of the railroad
corporations and congress was COM
PEELED to yield to the universal public
demand for restrictive legislation, and
the passage of the interstate com.
merce bill was the result. Now the
wisdom of the law is becoming appar-
emit in the fact that it forces competi,
tion among the railroads. The rail-
roads have invented the system Of
pooling for the very purpose of abol-
ishing competition. By their pooling
arrangements there could be no such
thing as competition in rates. The
first thing the new law did was to
strike sdown this in,quitous pooling
system, and the beneficial results that
have followed are nowhere more ap-
parent than here in the Northwest.
The break made by the Minnesota l.
Northwestern lowered the rates be.
tween this point and Chicago, with q
still further tendency to go downward.
Now, the Manitoba makes a strike in
the same direction west of US. The
companies owning parallel lines are
actually beginning to compete with
each other. 1t is nc longer an arrange.
ment between them by which the bu.
siness a be divided and the rates
kept up so high that all can make a
big profit. But it is a genuine scufle
fos freight and passenger traffic OH
the oidttime principle in business
competition Of the longest pole knock
ing the persimmop. This healthy
condition of affairs is TIE direct re.
suit of the operations Of the, inters..atte
commerce law. The public are i'll
debted TO the provisions of that Law

The PRESS favors a division of the
territory because 4 government close
to the people is more clean and pure,
less extravaganza, less iobbery, and
less corruption are the results that
will follow division. Dakota as one
state is too large to lie economically
governed. Then division will give us
our just representation in congress by
allowing four senator's instead of two
as would be the CASE without division.

How MosBY WAS SAVED BY a FAIRFAX

ture and perhaps death by lady of Fairfax
county, who is beloved and esteemed bg all

capture of DR.. Brakes saddlebags and med.
cnes, he says:

was stationed, and waiting for me 10 come
after them. ] did not want them to he dis
appointed in their desire 10 visit Richmond.
When l got within mile OF it and had stop
ped Cor few minutes to make my DISPOSE
ton for attack, observed two ladies walk
ing rapidly toward me. One WAS Miss
Laura Radcliffe, young lady 10 whom
Stuart had introduced me few weeks be-
fore, when returning from his raid on Dunn
fries-with her sister. Their home was
near Fryingpan, and they had got informa-
ton of plan to capture me, and were just
going to the house of citizen to get him TO
put me on my guard, when fortune brought
them across my path. Bat for meeting
them my life as partisan would have
closed that day. There was cavalry post
10 sight at Fryingpan, but near there, in the
pines, large body of cavalry had been con-
ceaed. 1t was expected that would az
tack the picket, but that my momentary
triumph would be like tie tabled Dead
Seas fruit-ashes to tine taste-as the party
in the pines would pounce from their hiding
place upon me. A gsrrulous lieutenant had
disclosed the plot TO the young lads: never
dreaming that she would walk through the
snow to get the news to me. This was not
the only time during the war when I owed
my escape from danger to the tact OF It
